Couldn't agree more. Entirely too cute.
I don't get these "cute" comments. Have you all seen the current X3 in person? My girlfriend and sister both have F25 X3s and I think cute is the last word I'd use to describe them. The front end is aggressive as hell looking, especially for an SUV. With much more defined lines compared to the "rounded and bubbly" lines of current X5 if any of them look cute it would be it.

Can't speak for the X1. BMW has delayed its release here in the US because the new X3 is selling like crazy so I haven't seen one in person.
I am under the impression that the reason that the X1 is not here is because it is selling like hotcakes in Europe, and they can't meet the additional demand for the US. The Leipzig plant is still squeezing out 1Ms for non US markets instead of more X1s.
